Review of the Starling Bank, Current account:

The bank of the times

I have had an account for a couple years and I have watched other banks fade away. When I joined Starling, I signed up through the application on my phone. It was very easy. I confirmed my identity online, with somethey help me via live chat. I can upload cheques to my account. When I am a little out of pocket, I find a few spare pennies that have been automatically saved for me with each purchase. Starling is progressive and targets the current age and that is wonderful. Older people seem to get left behind in the times. This encourages them to adapt and embrace them. It welcomes them into the new age. Reviewed on: 5th March 2021

Easy peasy.!!

I have never been good at managing my money and saving was thing of my imagination since being with Starling bank ihave saved regularly and managed to afford new clothes regularly, go out with friends for lunch without worrying and... Have been on holidays that would normally be out of my reachall this is through having regular savings moved from current account into my various saving "spaces" . It's great to have this facility . Changing from HSBC to Starling was so very easy, basically I didn't have to do anything. A very efficient and easy bank account to have.Thank you Reviewed on: 12th April 2024
